Nassau County police continue to search for a gun-wielding man who robbed a Westbury bank last month.

Police shared new information Tuesday in a news release, saying the gunman who robbed the Bank of America at 248 Post Ave. on Aug. 24 left in a white sport utility vehicle.

Just days after the robbery, in which the suspect took an unspecified amount of cash, police released video of the gunman, who is seen pacing in front of the teller window before jumping over the counter. The video was taken by surveillance cameras at the bank.
